Happflower,
I totally know what you mean about feeling the "friendship click" with people, whether they are professionals or not. I've met certain people with whom I just feel an instant connection, and I LIKE them, and want to know them more. Sometimes I can't really pursue it -- as you said, it's sort of not culturally acceptable for a married woman to be friends with a different married man. At least, not in my "fuddy duddy" circle and strata and all that. Maybe amongst the hipsters and raging youth in San Francisco or New York, the urban punky cool kids who wear black and glitter with piercings, it would be completely OK to "friend up" with whomever. But for me, it's not really all that acceptable, here in middle class suburbia!But still, you can feel that spark and know that you feel a kinship with this person.
It's cool that your doc invited you to the band! Did you go? How was it?
